Invalid Email Address for signup #35

Open joatu opened 9 years ago

joatu commented 9 years ago

I'm not sure how the site determines a valid/invalid email address, but I put one in and it told me it was invalid.

I am using DoNotTrackMe and it allows me to put in a unique address, so if ever I am spammed from that address, I can just stop receiving emails from them and know the source of the spam leak.

non-valid email

.me email address issues as well.

the traditional validator expects email to never start with a number. i could change the "regular expression" that checks for this or ask you if it is possible to put at least one letter in front of an email like this.

@TedEwanchyna I'd say change the Regex, I see no reason not to allow email addresses like the one Jamie posted.

I entered jamie's email 317e6578@opayq.com to test my "no number" theory and i did not get an invalid email notification. Also, when I checked the regex for email, I was wrong, it is valid to have the email start with a number. So I can not duplicate this error. Same with entries that end in .me. I might need some help here...
